I need to repartition and install multiple distros from within Windows

Right now I have a computer with just Windows XP on it and I want to make a live usb stick with Debian on one partition (live install), a knoppix distro (for recovery) on another and another would be just fat or fat32 with my data and programs.

Is it even possible to install GRUB on a USB stick and are there any partition tools that are free and work with USB sticks?

Most of LiveCD distros automount all available partitions. Read/Write will not be confined to specific area because whole stick will be read on each boot up.
Anyways, its easy to stop automount by editing /etc/fstab file.

It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.New Users:Read This First
